The AAP party is denying the liquor scam allegations, stating that the arrest of Kejriwal is a political move by the saffron party amid Lok Sabha elections.
Earlier in the day, Aam Aadmi Party workers staged a protest campaign named ‘Jail Ka Jawab Vote Se’ against the arrest of Delhi Chief Minister and party national convenor Arvind Kejriwal in connection with the excise policy case.
While staging a protest outside Laxmi Nagar Metro station, AAP East Delhi Lok Sabha candidate Kuldeep Kumar said that the public in Delhi is angry and they will teach the Bharatiya Janata Party a lesson on May 25 (Lok Sabha elections in Delhi).
Arvind Kejriwal was arrested on March 21 by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection with a money-laundering case related to the Delhi government’s now-scrapped excise policy. Since April 1, he has been lodged in Tihar Jail.
Delhi will vote to elect its all seven Lok Sabha representatives on May 25 in the sixth phase of the General elections.
